The Osun State Governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke has denied claims that his administration has slashed traditional rulers’ statutory monthly allocation by 2.5 per cent.
According to the governor, “I risked my life to Abuja for Osun State’s sake and I don’t need government money but will rather add to it.”
Gov Adeleke, responding to agitations by traditional rulers, who claimed that the current administration had slashed their statutory during their monthly meeting held at the Finance Building, Abere yesterday, explained that monthly allocation varied, hence it was affecting the five per cent deduction for traditional rulers.
